/sci/ - Science & Math

I am in need of some new reading. Just finished Calculus series and Discrete Math intro series (ending with big-O notation and finite state automata). I'm interested in something that's 'off the beaten path', as in not something a pure/applied math major would be required to take.

>your school

>major
Computer science and mathematics double major
>GPA
3.8
>thoughts on school/program
Very pretty campus, tons of research opportunities, and our CS program is pretty good. I'm happy here

>That feel when I can't get get any worthwhile job without an education
>Also home schooled (don't laugh)
>No money, no income, and can't qualify for a grant because I'm not black
>Basically my options are to flip burgers until I have enough income to get a pell grant, then apply for community college which in my area is basically high-school and also predominantly black, and after spending 2-4 years there learning literally nothing beyond derivation/integration hope to get a decent job somewhere, after which I either stay there until I die or finally apply for university by the time I'm 30 years old and my dreams have been killed
>Right now there are people my age (18) whom I know and speak to regularly who are attending prestigious universities and getting internships at google while I'm stuck in this shithole wherein you're einstein if you can do integer factorization, studying in a complete vacuum, dying on the inside

Except universities aren't brands.
They aren't even comparable in this case because the flagship universities in the US have the others completely outclassed in almost every way.
